Located just outside the town of San Ignacio, near Belize's western
border with Guatemala, Windy Hill resort is located in 100 acres
of rainforest, and lush tropical gardens with views down towards
the coast (though you can’t see it!).
The resort has a central restaurant and bar, swimming pool surrounded
by wooden decking and local style timber constructed bungalows dotted
amongst well tended gardens and grounds. Each room has en suite
bathroom, a small sitting area and private verandah.
The owner of Windy Hill is a keen Elvis fan, and it is said that
he has even recently been seen walking the grounds. Elvis that is,
not the owner!
Windy Hill offers a variety of modular packages from 2 nights to
7 nights in duration that take in a variety of different aspects
of the local area. Half day canoe trips down the Macal River to
see egrets, iguanas and other wildlife (no piranhas, you’re
lucky!); 4WD trips to the Rio Frio Caves, Mountain Pine Ridge and
the spectacular Hidden valley Falls; rainforest treks in Guanacaste
National Park to see jaguarundi, armadillo, agouti, white tailed
deer, iguana, and several species of bats and opossum. Over one
hundred species of birds have been spotted including Blue-crowned
Motmots, Black-faced Ant-thrush, Smoky-Brown Woodpecker, Black-headed
Trogon, Squirrel Cuckoo, Bright-rumped Attila and white-breasted
Wood-Wren.
For the culture vulture there are trips to Xanuntunich and Caracol
Mayan ruins, located within Belize, but for the true aficionado
of all things Mayan an overnight trip to the largest Mayan city
in Central America, Tikal in Guatemala is a must. Waking before
down to climb the highest pyramid to watch the sun rise over the
surrounding rainforest, looking down at the monkeys chattering through
the trees below you is a site that you will never forget!
Tailor made packages are available on request.
